Quadarikiri
Edit SpotAbout
Although opinions may differ, this spot is the first true tow-in spot on the island. Bahalo!!! By the way u need a hurricane swell for this spot to work so be there around hurricane season. (Aug-Nov)
Atmosphere:
The spot is breathtaking from land it kinda looks like Tahiti...deep blue, perfect, hollow and powerful it's so beauty full just like a dream.
Additional Info:
This open right-hander breaks at 20+ feet so be sure to have a good tow-in board and be in top shape.
Paddling out is not an option u need to get to the break by boat, paddling in is not an option as the waves are fast and big, jet-ski and tow-in experience is necessary. It's fast, it's hollow thick-lipped and mighty.
Location
Loading...Access
It's to the right of the Quadarikiri caves it's easily accessible by land, u just follow the roadsigns into the national park and you'll be there in no time. Walk about 300 meter straight out from the caves then look to the right you'll see the break. Don't even think of jumping from the rocks as u will get pounded into a pulp by the 6-8 ft swells crashing into the jagged edge. You also need a boat, some jet-ski's , a med team, and balls. The expertise of fishermen or someone who knows back there to guide you to the spot by sea is necessary.
